Devil’s Advent

It is not in the morning that the eyes are sleepy and dim, and all things are revived in the morning;

It is not the sun shining brightly at noon, and the heat is in full swing, scorching the soles of the feet and drying the scalp at the same time;

but at dusk.

It seems that a surprise attack is more suitable for the morning style of painting, but in this world, it is difficult to have absolutely perfect things.

Sneaking, going around the back, crossing the river, and galloping on horseback, leaving aside Xue San and Chen Xiong who had been transferred to Xiangsi Mountain as a cover early, and leaving aside the 10,000 who stayed with the prince, originally, Chen Yang and Fan Li, At least there should be a number of thirty-five thousand.

The ones who were selected were the veterans of the Sushan Daying camp plus the selected elites of other troops, and neither the attack on Lanyang City nor Chuzhou City caused much damage to the Yan people;

But when it came to Shangjing, there were only about 30,000 left in Chen Yang's department.

This meant that at least 5,000 subordinates were either exhausted, left behind, or simply lost their way during this short period of terrifying detour.

For an ordinary army, this situation is really normal, which is why the more soldiers and horses, the slower the march, but for the elite Chinese army who was once King Jingnan himself, it caused such a big The non-combat attrition is enough to explain the price Yan Jun paid for this "surprise".

but,

After seeing the city wall of Shangjing,

top down,

Whether it is a general or the lowest knight,

Even if you take a breath, you can feel the bloody smell deep in your throat,

At this point, it's all worth it!

Shangjingcheng,

Right in front of them!

This is a majestic capital, and at the same time it is an extremely weak capital, it is there, it is so quiet, so graceful,

it,

Waiting for my luck!

Chen Yang knew that this was an opportunity obtained by Prince Pingxi by using himself as a bait.

He knew even better that as long as he could break into the capital, the guilt of being in the Sushan Camp could finally be wiped away.

Chen Yang has no brains to think about other things anymore, even when he first received the order, he had thought about whether Prince Pingxi's military decision, which is almost "crazy", can succeed,

What he was thinking about was, after the success of this great military adventure, for his army and Prince Pingxi himself, whether he could get a chance to surface and exhale again after the joy and great victory.

Because this time, they didn't have reinforcements, and they would only make their own situation more and more passive if they divided their troops after they went deep.

Prince Pingxi himself is still surrounded by armies from all walks of life,

Even if he conquered Shangjing City, what should he do next?

Even, whether or not he could not be smothered to death under Ganren's frantic revenge and counterattack, all of this is an open question.

However, this is also the reason why Ganren didn't predict this in advance. You can deduce and predict most of your opponent's motives and behaviors, but often, you don't judge that he may "send to death"!

Chen Yang thought about the lecture that the prince gave to the whole army that night, and the captain who came to listen to the lecture was asked to follow the tradition of Eastern Jin to repeat it to his soldiers when he returned;

The prince said that night that he would take the big guy to pursue something, not wealth, not women, not land, but... glory.

this,

Is it the glory that the prince wants?

Now, Chen Yang no longer wants to think about the gains and losses in the future. The only thing he wants to do now is to taste the magnificent...delicious food in front of him!

In the kit that Fan Li opened, there was the word "Ula".

The lord was "forced" again, but Fan Li was very satisfied.

In this situation,

Only these two words can make his whole body numb.

The woodcutter who once used people as firewood to chop down and collect them, and accumulated bones to build palaces, likes this kind of mass killing the most;

In this atmosphere,

Fan Li's skin began to show a strange red color;

His armor had long been thrown on the road, but at this moment, he rushed to the front with a howl, like a wild beast, pounced on his sheepfold.

Chen Yang roared: "Send my military order, charge to the city!"

The messenger Sima started roaring to convey this order. Their voices had long since become hoarse, but it didn't matter. After the Chinese army saw that the front army started charging forward without hesitation, they immediately understood, and the rear army did the same.

This is a tired team, but the tempting trip to the capital is enough for them to squeeze out a new energy at this time.

After all, this Shangjing city is much more "thirst-quenching" than plums.

Back then, Shangjing City was attacked by Li Fusheng. Although it was just an act of venting, it also experienced traces of war.

But at that time in Shangjing, there were officials and defenders who had been taken in early. Although the dry soldiers did not dare to go out to fight in the field, it was completely fine to defend the city.

It stands to reason that because of Li Fusheng back then, Qianguo should pay more attention to the defense of Shangjing.

For example, the construction of the city wall, such as the cleaning of the houses outside the city wall and the construction of satellite castles, people have done a lot of work on the civil engineering, but here, it has failed.

Because Shangjing City is the heart of the entire Qian State, it involves too many interests. If you want to transform it into a military center, you have to weaken the functions in other directions, but the problem is that the original Shangjing City has long been It is overwhelmed and functioning. This large town accommodates the largest population in Zhuxia and even the world today. It needs too much manpower and material resources and the inevitable operation to achieve the nutrients needed for its own existence.

Even though the Yan army swept through the Gyeonggi area back then, the population of Bianzhou County, that is, the population at the foot of the emperor, did not decrease, but swelled even more violently.

After the northern land was swept away by the Yan people, all the people in the northern land who had this condition began to move to the capital;

A chaos in the southwest, coupled with the friction between the Chu State and the Qian State in the southeast, wherever the war broke out, a large number of people would instinctively choose to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and defected to the feet of the emperor.

In fact, at the beginning of the construction of Shangjing City, its defensive capabilities and military functions must be considered, but gradually, it will become the same as the imperial palace. When any imperial palace is built, its defensiveness will also be considered. After all, it is the emperor's guard. It is the last barrier, but often when things come, it will appear very tasteless and pale.

Therefore, generally speaking, in the face of the enemy's attack, the existence of the capital often gathers soldiers and horses in advance or calls on the king's divisions from all over the place to defend. The defenders are by no means just standing on the city wall in the traditional sense. Defense is enough. In many places, enough soldiers are needed to fill in the frontal fight, otherwise these loopholes cannot be filled at all.

If the Forbidden Army of the Qian Kingdom is still in the capital, even if not all, but only 30,000 regular troops, defend the first wave, and then mobilize the people, the city can be carried down. At least, the so-called siege is really true. It has to evolve into a siege mode.

However, although there are actually a lot of forbidden troops left behind, the real backbone and elite have gone to the northern battlefield along with the officials. In short, the entire system of the forbidden army in Shangjing City has actually been dismantled. It's all over the place.

In this capital, there is no one person, or a group of people, who can control the "actual operation" of this capital.

at the same time,

It is also necessary to consider some kind of arrangement specially made by the official royal family before the personal conquest.

For example, who to bring together to go out, for example, whoever is relegated before going out, or who is sent to jail;

If there is a problem in the battle in front of him and he is defeated, how can he ensure that the rear will wait for him to return in peace and order without any trouble.

It is impossible to fight in the front by yourself, and the prince in the back, or someone, will make a coup and directly enshrine himself as the "Supreme Emperor". That would be a lot of fun.

After all, not everyone can lead troops to go out on their own like Prince Pingxi, and leave their hometown to the blind very simply. This kind of trust cannot be understood or learned by others.

And even if the official family can really achieve such "courage", other forces in the court will not allow others to use the name of the prince to supervise the country to do things after the official family leaves Beijing.

This is the state of "weakness" and "loose sand" artificially created.

A capital city, after being taken away from the main force, was deliberately disrupted, and suddenly faced with a group of vicious Yan troops, all of a sudden, it became chaotic.

The flames are lit,

the bell is ringing,

It is not that there are no officials and generals who are loyal to this country to take the initiative to rush to the front line of the city wall at this time, and it is not that there are no heroes of the rivers and lakes who want to help kill the enemy against the crowd of people fleeing in a hurry at this moment;

There are all these things, the huge Shangjing City, with such a large population, naturally there will be no shortage of epic moments in these critical moments;

But the problem is that under the general trend, personal efforts to make dots and lines still can't change the turbulent beat at this time.

The city gate of Zhengyangmen fell down early, but unfortunately, the two side gates of Zhengyangmen failed to close successfully, and besides the two side gates, there are still roads that can enter the city in a detour.

People living here are like a group of ants scurrying up and down. You can even compare the capital city to an ant nest extending in all directions.

The guard of the Zhengyang Gate personally led a forbidden army to fight against the Yan army, trying to take this area down temporarily and wait for the reinforcements from Beijing to arrive, but unfortunately, he failed.

He brought all his personal guards and died here, but the more soldiers under his command did not have the determination of the guards to see death as home, and soon collapsed and went back.

It didn't take half a day, at most, more than an hour, the Yan people opened the defense line of Zhengyang Gate and rushed in.

And Yan Jun, who was still looking for an entry point in other directions, heard the news and resolutely stopped entangled with the dry army in front of him. After leaving the battlefield, he directly walked in through the ready-made gap.

The main force of the Forbidden Army stationed outside the capital was dispatched to follow the officials to the north. Therefore, the capital directly faced the first wave of Yan Army's offensive.

In the upper capital, the officials who are capable of organizing defenses are not high enough to be qualified to dispatch, and those who are qualified to dispatch do not know how to do it at all.

This is not irony, but the cold reality. The overly complicated bureaucratic system makes it impossible for Qianren to command the overall situation in a short time at this critical moment.

In comparison, in the same situation, the Yan people, who have always been considered "rough" by the Gan people, are more adaptable.

Regardless of the city of the Yan people, even if it is in the capital city, you can clearly assign ranks to the highest batch of officials, or you can call it a big brother like the "King of the Mountain" Second brother and third brother, on this point, Prince Pingxi's experience actually has the most right to speak.

In a critical moment, the eldest brother is on top, the eldest brother is gone, and the second brother is on top.

A simple and rough system is more efficient than the so-called delicate and rich system at a specific time.

Therefore,

The Yan people really kept pouring in along the Zhengyang Gate, but the Gan people, the defenders from other places, never thought of mobilizing here to make up for this terrible loophole.

With the influx of more and more Yan troops, and when the Yan troops entering the city began to radiate to the surroundings, it can be said that the entire city defense of Shangjing City is rapidly losing its meaning of existence.

And at this time,

In the palace of Qian Kingdom, there was even more chaos.

At first, Prince Jian Guo was led by his father-in-laws to run towards the harem, because they heard that the Yan people were coming from the west, so the southeast corner should be relatively safe.

But the two gentlemen who stayed behind immediately brought people to the palace and asked the prince to issue an edict immediately to organize the army and civilians in the city to fight back and drive the Yan people out.

The subordinates of both sides scuffled together for a while. At this critical moment, the so-called rules, etiquette and restraint, which are usually valued more than life, seem to have become worthless all of a sudden.

And outside the palace, the Seventh Prince, who had already established a mansion and established teeth, and had been to the southeast several times to pass on edicts and had a close relationship with his ancestral family, after hearing the noise from outside, immediately put on his armor and led him. The guards of the royal palace wanted to leave the palace to clean up the situation.

However, before the imperial conquest by the official family, he was deliberately punished for "not being good at schoolwork" and thinking behind closed doors.

In the eyes of the officials, this prince, who had a little bit of military power, was one of the unstable factors in the capital when he went to the capital himself;

As for the prince's family, in order to ensure absolute stability, the confinement of the prince was further deepened.

Originally, the officials might just want to stick a seal, but the people below and other people took advantage of the opportunity to put a nail on it.

The Seventh Prince wanted to come out to clean up the situation, but after being rejected by the silver armored guards guarding his palace, the two sides actually started a fight outside the palace.

On the other side, Yan people are coming in continuously.

Such absurd scenes are constantly being staged in various places in the capital.

There is really not much to write about, because under such circumstances, the appearance of this brilliant capital city can only be said to be more chaotic and unbearable than the previous Lanyang City and Chuzhou City .

The horseshoes of the Yan people began to trample on the official roads in the capital. Unlike the Gan people who were at a loss in their own capital, the Yan army's quick response after entering the city twice, and the experience in a short period of time, was used This time.

Which gate should be rushed, which point should be seized, and which area should be cleared, the Yan army actually did not have a plan in advance, but naturally under the leadership of their respective generals, they went to the place where they should go, and there will definitely be overlaps. There will be omissions, but this kind of efficiency is really jaw-droppingly efficient compared to the dry people at this time.

"The palace, the palace!"

Fan Li, who was holding an axe, shouted to Yan Jun who was following behind him.

Breaking into the capital city and the imperial palace must be the top priority!

At this point, Chen Yang didn't even fight with Fan Li, he started to lead the troops to defeat the organized army in the city with the overall situation in mind.

"Palace!!!!"

"Enter the palace, capture the empress!"

"Enter the palace, capture the empress!"

The blood-swelling slogan sounded again, and the soldiers of the Yan army felt that the blood in their bodies was burning. They were fearless, and they did not believe that there would be anyone in front of them who could stop their steps.

On the way to the palace, from time to time, cadres came out to stop them, and there were many fans in silver armor and guard robes. There were also experts among them.

However, under the orderly harvest of the Yan army's charge, bows and crossbows, Ganren's resistance basically did not persist for too long.

even,

Because Fan Li charged too fast with his soldiers and horses, the palace gate of the palace was not even able to close successfully in time.

Some people figured it out and were ordered to check the situation outside, while others received a letter from an unknown lord or nobleman in the palace asking to come in for protection, and everyone was stuck there, and when the Yan people came to kill them, they immediately "bombed" opened.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Yan Jun entered the palace.

"boom!"

Fan Li alone, like a wild bull, knocked out the guys in front of him who were dressed as Jin Wuwei, and rolled on the ground several times. He really didn't expect those Jin Wuwei to be dressed so fancy In fact, his kung fu was extremely hip-stretching, causing most of his strength to make intimate contact with the blue bricks on the ground.

After a "click\

,"Fan Li was shocked to find that he broke his left arm!

"..." Fan Li.

so,

Next,

When soldiers of the Yan Army continued to report to Fan Lilai, the picture became like this:

"General Fan, those eunuchs..."

"Chop!"

"General Fan, those in red robes..."

"Chop!"

"General Fan, those in purple robes..."

"Chop!"

"General Fan, those..."

"Cut it, cut it, cut it, cut it all down, except for the queen and concubine!"

"General Fan..."

"Ask me again and I'll kill you!"

And in Shangjing City outside the imperial palace, Chen Yang, who gave up the opportunity to show off, was devoted to being a scavenger, and just now defeated a group of forbidden troops, stood in a pool of blood with a knife in his hand, watching the surroundings continue to follow Under his command, he grinned, raised his head, faced the sky, and laughed loudly:

"Li Fusheng, you have been blowing for several years, but you just urinated under the city wall of Shangjing! This time, I straightened up and came in!"

wiped the blood from his face,

Chen Yang reached into the inner folder of his armor and took out a kit.

King Pingxi gave two kits in total, one to Fan Li and one to Chen Yang.

The one for Fan Li is to open it when he sees Shangjingcheng;

This one for myself is to let it open after entering Shangjing City.

Panting for breath, Chen Yang tore open the kit, and opened the piece of paper inside...it was blank with no words; turning it over again, it was still blank.

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Chen Yang laughed twice, swallowed hard,

ordered:

"The king..."

paused,

He shouted again:

"Benbo's military order is passed on, the sword is not sealed up and down.

Ben Bo wants to turn the capital of this goddamn man into a white land! "
